Corporation and Political Boundary and Waterway crossing signs

Location: All across the entire state.

As I mention on the front page of the sign shop, NYSDOT and the NYSTA have
been gravitating towards all capital letters on signage for the past 20 years
ago. Studies show that motorists identify sign messages by word and letter "shape" before
content and using an all capital letter approach to signing masks letter shape
recognition.

Series D in mixed case needs to be introduced to political boundary signs and other signs of interest.
By using Series D in mixed case, legibility is enhanced without an increasing in haloing from
headlights.

In the examples above, line 1 is in 8-inch upper case/6-inch lower case Series "D" and line 2 is
in 6-inch upper case Series "D" (with the exception of the village or city boundary line signs, then
lettering size is reversed for applicable lines). For freeway and expressway application, legend would be
increased to 13.33-inch upper case Series "D" and 10-inch lowercase Series "D" for line 1 and 10-inch upper
case Series "D" for line 2.
